You're the guinea pig.  Let us know!  It will affect what I do
on a couple of machines...  I'm having to use Nvidia XP drivers
on my (Lenovo Thinkpad) Vista machines in order to have
full-screen VGA a la the old days.  Works OK, but I seem to
recall reading during the Win7 betas that Win7 had no support
whatsoever for VGA.  A deal-breaker for me.
